Sergio Aguero has torn his hamstring and will be out for a while, he has confirmed.

The precise length of time is unclear yet but Aguero will certainly miss next weekend's game with Arsenal.

"The studies confirmed I have a torn muscle," AgŁero wrote on his Twitter account. "We have to keep on thinking positive and try to recover in the best way possible. For that, I've travelled to Italy where a specialist is treating me. I'll keep you up to date in how the injury evolves."
